Synopsis Homicide and the Politics of Law Reform by : Jeremy Horder
What makes murder, murder? How should we understand the difference between intentional and reckless killing? Should offenders be punished differently according to the perceived severity of their crime and when should they be excused? These questions are the topic of intense debate within legal circles and beyond in the UK, the US, and the rest of world. Jeremy Horder's role as the Law Commissioner for England and Wales on criminal law has given him unique insight into these questions and the debates surrounding them. Here he analyses the recent political and legal reform movements, offering a political history of homicide law reform from the 19th century to the modern era. Using homicide as a starting point, Horder raises deeper questions of who is and should be responsible for making and changing the law. What role should there be for expert bodies, judges, and politicians? What role should there be for the general public? These questions invoke strong emotional responses. Horder argues that comprehensive research into, and a degree of difference to, public opinion on the scope of homicide is essential to the reform process. It is essential principally as a means of conferring true legitimacy on homicide reform in a democracy. Elite or expert opinion alone will never authentically secure such legitimacy. Offering an insider's view into the processes of achieving law reform, Horder expresses criticism of a system that excludes the vast majority of people from consultation on reform of the laws that govern them.

Synopsis Regulation Crisis by : Paul Almond
This article identifies a new direction for discussion of the proposed corporate manslaughter offense. Considering work-related fatality cases with reference to the concept of legitimacy allows us to obtain a fuller understanding of their importance and the potential benefits associated with reform of the law. Work-related fatality cases have inherent power as signal offenses. A failure to resolve these cases in a manner that satisfies the interests of the publics that the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) faces, may lead to a crisis of legitimacy for the agency. Reforming the law so as to facilitate such a response may offer important legitimatory benefits to regulators.

Synopsis Corporate Criminal Liability by : Mark Pieth
With industrialization and globalization, corporations acquired the capacity to influence social life for good or for ill. Yet, corporations are not traditional objects of criminal law. Justified by notions of personal moral guilt, criminal norms have been judged inapplicable to fictional persons, who ‘think’ and ‘act’ through human beings. The expansion of new corporate criminal liability (CCL) laws since the mid-1990s challenges this assumption. Our volume surveys current practice on CCL in 15 civil and common law jurisdictions, exploring the legal conditions for liability, the principles and options for sanctioning, and the procedures for investigating, charging and trying corporate offenders. It considers whether municipal CCL laws are converging around the notion of ‘corporate culture’, and, in any case, the implications of CCL for those charged with keeping corporations, and other legal entities, out of trouble.

A fascinating study of the law of homicide, examining its recent development and providing an insider's view on the politics of law reform. Challenging current thought, it argues for the general public to have a greater role in the process of law reform including offenses such as murder, manslaughter, and the highly debated corporate homicide.
